You will be passionate about delivering and improving our processes to streamline our work, and enjoy bringing your skills in organisation and process management to a vibrant team. You will be comfortable multi-tasking and shifting priorities when needed on tasks such as answering the phone, ordering supplies, organising the logistical details of room hire and supporting the delivery of events.

You will enjoy working with a range of people including residents of all ages and backgrounds.

Pembroke House
Pembroke House is a neighbourhood organisation. We are working towards a connected, just and thriving Walworth. We believe in the power of a neighbourhood to tackle our biggest social challenges.
We were founded in 1885, by students from Pembroke College, Cambridge, as one of the first settlement houses. Shocked by growing poverty and inequality, the pioneers of the settlement movement sought a new approach: taking up residence to live, work and solve problems alongside local communities. We continue to share a building with St Christopher’s church, which has its routes in the same student settlement.
For over 130 years, we’ve been working to bridge traditional divides and unite people – whatever their background or walk of life – in building a better Walworth.
Application Deadline: 9am Monday 6 July 2026 Please note we will be shortlisting and interviewing potential candidates throughout this period.
Shortlisting by Nina Feldman and Sally Carr: Week of 6 July
Interviews with Michal Beno and Tara Mack: Week of 13 July
You will be required to complete a short IT test if you are invited to an interview, and have an opportunity to meet some other members of the team.
Located in the heart of Walworth, we strive to empower communities and individuals to create a neighbourhood where everyone can flourish.

The Sheppard Trust provides homes for older women in housing need, and we support them to live independently. We reduce loneliness and isolation by fostering a supportive community spirit.
We're about to move to brand-new, purpose built accommodation near Hampton Court village in Surrey, with 60 one bedroomed flats and a range of communal facilities. Our residents will live independently in their homes, with assistance to access the appropriate support services to maintain independence.We want them to live full and active lives in an inclusive, thriving community which is well regarded in our local community.
We're a small friendly team who care deeply about getting this project off to an excellent start and achieving our aims. We operate with these values: respectful, inclusive, conscientious, compassionate, honest.
We’re looking for someone proactive and flexible to help us for the first six months, as we set up the building, set up our new systems, and move everyone in. This will be a really varied role where no two days are the same, and will be a mixture of administration and practical tasks. You could be getting our staff kitchen set up, preparing the paperwork for a new resident, helping someone set up their heating controls or utility accounts, setting up and updating databases, answering queries at reception, logging maintenance tasks or helping with an event.
You might well have some housing experience already, or have worked with older people, but we also value transferrable skills, lived values and the ability to learn quickly.
An enhanced DBS check will be required. This will be a fixed term contract from mid-July 2026 for six months. We are open to offering this role on either a full time basis or an alternative working pattern of at least 25 hours per week.
You’ll bring:
· Confidence in organising and prioritising a varied workload
· Good administrative skills and ability to create and keep accurate records
· A proactive, flexible “can do” approach and the ability to “hit the ground running”
· Good communication skills with a wide range of people.
· a strong commitment to safeguarding and to respecting diversity and inclusion.
We can offer:
· a salary of £26,000 - 28,000 per annum pro rata
· membership of the Social Housing Pension Scheme (defined contribution)
· a friendly and supportive working environment with strong values, good staff facilities (and free tea and coffee)
· lots of variety and a range of experience
· the opportunity to be part of setting up something brand new from the very start.
